About Montana Rescue Mission

Montana Rescue Mission is a nonprofit located in Billings, Montana. Here, people who are experiencing hunger or homelessness can take shelter and find nourishment in a warm, safe, and supportive environment. This address is their administrative office, and they can direct you from here to the appropriate location for the services you need.

The organization also offers multiple programs, including sober living apartments, day treatment, outpatient therapy, peer support and case management for people facing addiction. They welcome all people in need and don’t turn away those who aren’t ready to commit to sobriety.

Personalized case management

When you arrive at Montana Rescue Mission, you’ll connect with a case manager. This case manager will help you access necessary resources, including shelter and medical care. If you decide to enter treatment they’ll devise a personalized plan based on your goals.

Sober living in the heart of Big Sky Country

One of Montana Rescue Mission’s newest programs is the Mission Apartments, which opened in fall 2024 in downtown Billings. The apartments offer people in recovery the opportunity to utilize the skills they’ve gained in drug rehab to live independently in secure, stable and community centered housing.

People in recovery tend to be quite vulnerable, particularly if they are also facing issues like housing and financial insecurity. These apartments provide a safety net to support folks on their path to lasting health and wellbeing.

Giving you the tools to flourish

If you have trouble meeting your basic needs, you may not have had the opportunity to obtain life skills in areas like personal finance management, computer use, and employment readiness.

Not having these skills may inhibit your ability to build a stable future. Through the Mission Academy, a residential educational program, and internship opportunities, Montana Rescue Mission can offer you the tools you need to prosper.

Stuck across the US with bad tires and no gas. I ended up in Billings late at night.Came to the shelter and they gave me a jail bunk with no blanket, no pillow, and only a half sized cusion. I was told I couldn't even bring my own blanket or pillow and I had to leave by 5am.After 5am I was not allowed back in the building till after night fall the next night. I asked to use the rest room the next day and was told no.After a week of living in my car in the middle of Montana winter I did find work on my own. I returned to the mission and asked if I could do some laundry and maybe shave and shower myself to make myself presentable for work. Again I was denied.This location left me cold, hungry, and without any usable assistance. Again this place did not feed me, denied me access to shower, laundry, and even simple restroom services.I do have to give credit where credit is do. They did offer me the most basic shelter from the ailments for a very short period of time. It honestly makes county jail feel like a 5 star hotel, but it did at least keep me out of the far below freezing weather for 2 and a half hours before sending me back into the freezing night.If your in Billings and need shelter I suggest grabbing a rock and throwing it through a store window and just waiting for a free ride in a flashy car to a place that will be a much more comfortable and accommodating. (Note: this sounds like sarcasm but trust it is not. I'm not even exaggerating).The only other good thing I can say is that the staff is very polite. 1 star. From me. A motivated homeless person trying diligently to better his situation was in need of very easy and basic help, but found none here.They do have these facilities available, but only to a very small fraction of the homeless community. alot of tax money wasted with little to show for it.Take a lesson from your neighbors over in Gillette WY. They now how to help their vulnurable parts of their population. If you can make it there I suggest going there they will help you turn your life around. Here in Billings your very liable to freeze to death some time between 5 to 8 am.

Other Forms of Payment

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Treatments

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Great place to stay

We called the Billings rescue mission from Great falls in May till this to come on down that they have room for us. We spent nearly $500 bus fare and things that we needed for being at the mission. When we got there they asked if we had medical insurance I don't have medical insurance they told me to go apply for Medicaid I told him I was denied. So we couldn't check in to the Montana rescue mission. They wouldn't even let us keep our baggage there inside while we went to find shelter elsewhere. They wouldn't even let me use the bathroom. They don't even feed the public. We found a place that's privately owned in an old motel. It's transitional housing. They're christians. The Montana rescue mission is just like the Great falls rescue mission. They lost their Christianity. They take Medicaid if you have it and that's the only way you can get in with insurance that way they charge Medicaid for you being there. What would Jesus do.
